Should guns be banned in the United States?

[QUOTE="reagan80_basic"]

No, the anti-gun sheeples can take mine from my cold dead hands.

Firearms will be needed when the cops decide to quit their jobs like they did in New Orleans during the Hurricane Katrina aftermath. Cops won't likely be there to answer your distress calls for you during a serious riot as well.

Firearms are going to be needed when the Mexicans start a violent separatist movement in the South-Western states in the future too.

You can't really hunt a bear with anything other than an extremely powerful firearm.

Yeah but you don't need gun that shoot like 30 bullets a second to take down a bear.

[/QUOTE

Actually, more powerful semi automatic weapons would be better.

But the whole Mexican separatist thing was idiotic. What does it say when those who are opposed to banning any guns think like that? Oh well, makes my side seem more reasonable.

If guns weren't so easily available in the US would those tragic school shootings have happened? Unlikely.

Noticed how school shootings don't happen nearly as much in Europe? Yeah.

Another great option would be to actually teach people about guns and get rid of the taboo.

If more people owned legally aquired firearms, less people would die at the hands of illegal firearms and those who used illegal firearms would die faster.

No.Dreams-Visions

Now that you're here I don't have to defend guns.

You're way better with this arguement anyway.

not the other way round.

Woooaaaaah. Hadn't realized the right wing hate had gone this far yet. I mean i was sure that mexicans would be used as a scapegoat used to blame the crumbling economy on... I know that hate crimes against mexicans have gone up... But now this... I'm sure you didn't make that little number up yourself either, im sure theres millions of others just like you. Quite disguesting. Anyone else thinking Jews after WWI?

Please, pay attention to history and world events. Let's look at a recent example: the 2005 Paris Riots.

"....the BBC summarized reasons behind the [riots] included youth unemployment and lack of opportunities in France's poorest communities."

When the American economy and welfare state inevitably go "belly up" for the illegals here, don't be surprised when they start burning your city to the ground (if you are in proximity of the West Coast) and demand their entitlements (such as the return of "their stolen land") via terrorism.

Except for the fact that that's not why I think they should be legal.

I don't really care about hunting. If you want to hunt, hunt.

Either way, if guns are ever banned, I'd wind up owning various other instruments that are capable of inflicting pain on other people, like crossbows.

Drugs can't defend people. They can fry your brain, but that's it.

Legally owned firearms are rarely a danger, because they are rarely used for crime. THey can be tracked.

Illegally gained firearms are the universal preference. We should use resources to constrict the trade of illegal firearms over banning all of them, in my opinion.
